With Election Day less than a week away, the candidates have tried out all their talking points, leaving us fact-checkers to evaluate the most repeated claims. Our state sites have been rounding up fact-checks in the various races they've been checking.

• PolitiFact Wisconsin has launched a series looking at what the candidates have said on issues like jobs, taxes and education. Incumbent Republican Gov. Scott Walker is receiving a strong challenge there from Democrat Mary Burke. 

PolitiFact Texas is wrapping up the race for governor between Republican Attorney General Greg Abbott and Democratic state Sen. Wendy Davis. 

PolitiFact Georgia has been tracking races for governor and the U.S. Senate. This week, they look at the Senate contest between Democrat Michelle Nunn and Republican businessman David Perdue.
